GLOSSARY OF TIRE
TERMINOLOGY
*
Tire label: A label showing the
original equipment tire sizes,
recommended inflation pressure
and the maximum weight the
vehicle can carry.
*
Tire Identification Number
(TIN): A number on the sidewall
of each tire providing information
about the tire brand and
manufacturing plant, tire size and
date of manufacture. Also referred
to as DOT code.
*
Inflation pressure: A measure
of the amount of air in a tire.
*
Standard load: A class of
P-metric or Metric tires designed
to carry a maximum load at set
pressure. For example: For
P-metric tires
35 psi (2.4 bar) and
for Metric tires 36 psi (2.5 bar).
Increasing the inflation pressure
beyond this pressure will not
increase the tire ’s load carrying
capability. *
Extra load: A class of P-metric
or Metric tires designed to carry a
heavier maximum load at
42 psi
(2.9 bar). Increasing the inflation
pressure beyond this pressure will
not increase the tire ’s load
carrying capability.
*
kPa: Kilopascal, a metric unit of
air pressure.
*
PSI: Pounds per square inch, a
standard unit of air pressure.
*
Cold tire pressure: The tire
pressure when the vehicle has
been stationary and out of direct
sunlight for an hour or more and
prior to the vehicle being driven for
1 mi (1.6 km)
.
*
Recommended inflation
pressure: The cold inflation
pressure found on the Safety
Compliance Certification Label
(affixed to either the door hinge
pillar, door-latch post, or the door
edge that meets the door-latch
post, next to the driver's seating
position), or Tire Label located on
the B-Pillar or the edge of the
driver door.
* B-pillar: The structural member
at the side of the vehicle behind
the front door.
*
Bead area of the tire: Area of
the tire next to the rim.
*
Sidewall of the tire: Area
between the bead area and the
tread.

2022 F-150 (TFD) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, Edition date: 202109, First-Printing Wheel and Tire Information
Your vehicle comes with high performance,
all-terrain tires designed to optimize
handling, steering and braking to provide
the performance you expect in a Ford
Performance vehicle. These tires are
optimized for both on and off-road
performance, and their ride, noise and wear
characteristics are different from other
tires. Also, because of their aggressive
tread profile, it is important that you
maintain your tires properly.
•
Always maintain your tire pressures
according to the tire information
placard located on the driver ’s door
B-pillar, using an accurate gauge.
Remember to be prepared to re-inflate
your tires before returning to the road.
If a tire filling station is not available,
remember to prepare a supplemental
means to inflate the tires, such as a
portable compressor.
• Check and set the tire pressures when
the tires are cold, and not warm from
driving. Wait at least three hours after
parking the vehicle before checking tire
pressure. Do not reduce the pressure
of warm tires.
• Check your tire pressure often to
maintain it properly. Tire pressure can
decrease over time and fluctuate with
temperature.
• Do not overload your vehicle.
Maximum vehicle and axle weights are
on the tire information placard.
• Use extra caution when operating the
vehicle near its maximum load,
including assuring proper tire pressure
and reducing speeds.
• If you encounter an abnormally harsh
impact, inspect your tires for damage.
• Inspect your tires for damage on a
regular basis. Replace a damaged tire
immediately. •
We do not approve the use of snow
chains on your vehicle's tires.
• Proper suspension alignment is critical
for maximum performance and
optimal tire wear. If you notice uneven
tire wear, have your alignment checked.
Spare Tire and Wheel
Your vehicle comes with a full size
matching spare with an all-terrain tire. The
spare tire and wheel assembly has the
same capability as the road tire and wheel
assemblies but does not come with a tire
pressure monitoring sensor. Wheels

We will repair or replace any properly
authorized dealer-installed Ford Original
Accessory found to be defective in
factory-supplied materials or workmanship
during the warranty period, as well as any
component damaged by the defective
accessories.
We will warrant your Ford Original
Accessory through the warranty that

warrants Ford Licensed Accessories, and
does not design or test these accessories
to Ford Motor Company engineering
requirements. Contact an authorized Ford
dealer for the manufacturer ’s limited
warranty details, and request a copy of the
Ford Licensed Accessories product limited
warranty from the accessory manufacturer. For maximum vehicle performance, keep
the following information in mind when
adding accessories or equipment to your
vehicle:
•
When adding accessories, equipment,
passengers and luggage to your
vehicle, do not exceed the total weight
capacity of the vehicle or of the front
or rear axle (GVWR or GAWR as
indicated on the Safety Compliance
Certification label). Ask an authorized
dealer for specific weight information.
• The Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) and Canadian
Radio Telecommunications
Commission (CRTC) regulate the use
of mobile communications systems
that are equipped with radio
transmitters, for example two-way
radios, telephones and theft alarms.
Any such equipment installed in your
vehicle should comply with Federal
Communications Commission (FCC)
and Canadian Radio
Telecommunications Commission
(CRTC) regulations and should be
installed only by an authorized dealer.
• An authorized dealer needs to install
mobile communications systems.
Improper installation may harm the
operation of your vehicle, particularly
if the manufacturer did not design the
mobile communication system
specifically for automotive use.
• If you or an authorized Ford dealer add
any non-Ford electrical or electronic
accessories or components to your
vehicle, you may adversely affect
battery performance and durability. In
addition, you may also adversely affect
the performance of other electrical
systems in the vehicle.

WHAT ARE THE AUXILIARY
SWITCHES
The auxiliary switchboard on the overhead
console makes aftermarket customization
easier with six prewired switches
connected to the power distribution box.
Each circuit is individually fused for
connection of electrical accessories.
For maximum vehicle performance, keep
the following information in mind when
adding accessories or equipment to your
vehicle:
•
When adding accessories, equipment,
passengers and luggage to your
vehicle, do not exceed the total weight
capacity of the vehicle or of the front
or rear axle (GVWR or GAWR as
indicated on the safety compliance
certification label). Ask an authorized
dealer for specific weight information.
• It is your responsibility to ensure that
any equipment you have fitted
complies with applicable local
legislation.
• An authorized dealer needs to install
mobile communication systems.
Improper installation may harm the
operation of your vehicle, particularly
if the manufacturer did not design the
mobile communication system
specifically for automotive use.
• If you or an authorized dealer add any
electrical or electronic accessories or
components not produced by us to
your vehicle, you may adversely affect
battery performance and durability. In
addition, you may also adversely affect
the performance of the other electrical
systems in the vehicle. LOCATING THE AUXILIARY
SWITCHES
The auxiliary switchboard on the overhead
console makes aftermarket customization
easier with six prewired switches
connected to the power distribution box.
The circuits are individually fused for
connection of electrical accessories.
The switches have labels for AUX 1 through
AUX 6. They only operate when the ignition
is in the on position, whether the engine is
running or not. We recommend that you
leave the engine running to maintain
battery charge when using the switches
for an extended time or when using higher
current draw accessories. When you turn
on a switch, the indicator light on the
switch illuminates and the circuit provides
power to the device wired to that switch.
Note:
AUX switch 1 operates the off-road
lamps when your vehicle comes with this
option.
